Wellness Recreational Outpost
restorative architecture for users
This project aims to develop a masterplan in technovation park in UTM that follow the DNA of UTM, where one of them is to create a healthy lifestyle in university.
Social issue faced by students and workers are the high stress level that affect their lifestyle. Stress can be reduce with physical activities, including recreational activities from low to moderate intensity and mind activities.

the sustainable pitches
Deep plan architectrure always depends on artificial lighting to light up inner space. This causes the highly demand of electricity for artificial lighitng. Natural daylighht is always a good friend of users in building, but does deep-plan spaces really can enjoy the natural daylighting with side openings?
Architectural design parameters have considered daylighting system that would provide proper lighting effect in building, at the same time promote sustainable building and environment. For deep-plan architecture, the space where has a long floor area where the deeper space is not receiving daylight from side windows need specific daylighting system to encounter this issue. Subsquently, daylight transporter system such as Anidolic Daylighting System (ADS) is a passive prototype that is able to collect and redirect daylight illuminance and compared to produce a configuration for the deep plan.

traditional performing arts factory
Traditional performing arts has been leaving out from recent generations due to other trends of performing arts. The historical and meaningful traditional culture needed to be inherit through other attractive way of introduction such as narration from different generations and experiencescape.
The introduction can be done in public space. Public spaces in a community plays a crucial role in stimulating and improving the community sustainability. It offers a space for community to take a part besides from their home place and work place, which enriches their daily life. Social interaction in a town should not be limited within their own circle, but should bring to the different society level to generate a sense of community, that can be the “enzyme” to introduce traditional performing arts.
